The Xantrex 1000-watt XPower Inverter wasn't up to the task of starting the Fridge. Even though it had 2000 watts of surge capacity, I still had an overload situation.
Is it overload or battery voltage drop? I don't know that inverter, but it might just need more battery or bigger cables to prevent the voltage from dropping below a voltage alarm level. This is one of the situations where a DC clamp meter with instantaneous surge capabilities and/or a voltmeter with max min voltage capability is nice - it can tell what your surge really is and/or what your voltage drop was.
X2 Keep us informed on your fix. I am curious what caused the problem.
